Tom Flores Oakland Raiders Autograph Signing February 2014

On Saturday February 15th, Hall of Fame Sports will host a public autograph signing for Oakland Raiders Pro Bowl quarterback and 2x Super Bowl Championship winning head coach, Tom Flores. The signing is part of Raiderfest 2014 and will be held at the Frank and Son Collectible Show in in City of Industry, California.

Tom Flores played college football at the University of Pacific but was not drafted by the NFL. He signed on with the Oakland Raiders of the newly-founded American Football League in 1960 and became the first starting QB in franchise history on September 11, 1960. Flores was one of the AFL's top QBs leading the league with a 54.0 completion percentage in 1960 and an 8.1 TD percentage in 1963. He made his first and only AFL All-Star Game in 1966 after throwing 2,638 passing yards, 24 TDs and leading the team to an 8-5-1 regular season record. Despite being traded to the Buffalo Bills in 1967, Flores was a big reason why the Raiders began to sky-rocket to the top of the AFL standings and later the NFL. Flores returned to the Raiders in 1979 as their head coach. In 1981, Flores became the first minority head coach to guide his team to a Super Bowl Championship. He followed that up with another Super Bowl win in SB XVIII. He is one of 13 head coaches to win two Super Bowl Championships.
